IWM Duxford evening Airshow

Cambridge 22nd August 2026

This was the annual Airshow where the flying starts in the evening through to semi darkness. The sun is from over the Old Land Warfare museum so the aircraft are lit up with a warm sidelight. This is the only Duxford event where the light is on the side of the photographer! The flying list was a bit light this year, but was of exceptional quality, with the Polish based Mig 17 and A26 Intruder being the rare attendees. The Moon was rising on the far side of the airfield and everyone was trying to get shots with Aircraft passing the Moon in some fashion. I have three of those below.
